To be honest, I haven't been all that well-behaved in 2009. Instead of destashing my craft supplies per my new year's resolution, I've been on a paper and rubber stamps buying spree. In fact, I've also fallen off the wagon and brought home fiber, yarn and fabric when I wasn't supposed to *grin* If you feel like granting a few of my crafty wishes, I promise I'll try to do better in 2010!

Yep. I finished the "Shag" scarf (from Lynne Barr's Knitting New Scarves) a lot faster than anticipated. Once I figured out the pattern, it was simply a repeated series of stitches. Mindless, really. I love how it turned out though!

Over the weekend, I bought another knitting book to add to my stash of craft p*rn. Reversible Knitting, also by Lynne Barr, has all kinds of cool stitches in it.

Some reviewers have complained that the stitch patterns in her book are a) not for the beginner knitter and b) not truly reversible. Honestly, I do agree with both evaluations. But meh, I'm looking for interesting geometric stitch patterns, and Lynne Barr delivers. So all is well in my world! Now I need to decide which project I should tackle first *glee*
